Removing and cleaning the carburetor on the 1983 VF750F unfortunately some of the video was lost thanks to Gopro.

Man that ultrasonic cleaner did a great job!

[@dschloe]

Yes it does!

David thanks for the reply , I can tell you now from experience , to remove those cards in one piece as the annual states you need a lot of btute force applied carefully so as not to bust anything , a good crowbar and blocks of wood work best ! RiP

That is very very incomplete. How did you get the carburetors out of their boots?

[@dschloe]

My suggestion would be to loosen the boots and try and remove it with it still attached to the air box for support so you don’t break the fuel tubes.

@@dschloe old carburetor boots can be almost like hard plastic. Sometimes you need to heat them with a heat gun to soften them up. Sometimes you need to soak them in a penetrant overnight. I remove them by doing one of those two things if needed and I use a pry bar to pop them out of their boots

@@django1thanks for the info. I have used the heating them up trick before and that works very well.

That's a bugger about the footage.

[@dschloe]

Yes it is but those things happen sometimes.

[@robertripley1000]

What a rubbish video , you actually did not show how to actually remove the cards 😢

[@dschloe]

I didn’t show how I removed them because how I removed them was wrong and broke the fuel lines. You need to remove them as all one piece by leaving the base of the air box on.
